Hosting Controller Releases HC7
October 23, 2006 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Web hosting automation software developer Hosting Controller (hostingcontroller.com) announced on Friday it has launched a public beta version of HC7.
Hosting Controller says the new version of the management solution enables customers to manage the routine tasks of a hosting business. Administrators can operate separate confined environments for each of three tiers of users.
New features for the beta also include support for Windows and Linux operating systems, full cluster management, and support for a centralized database with a built in load-balancing component.
"Capable of fulfilling the latest demands of its customers, HC7 is an efficient and reliable solution," says Syed Nauman Hashmi, CEO of Hosting Controller. "Keeping Web hosts' convenience in mind, now HC7 facilitates the management of both Linux and Windows servers through single interface."
HC7 beta has been in development phase for a year and a half and is available now for download. Hosting Controller expects to release final version by the end of November.

October 2009 - Web Hosting's All Star Team
This has been, for us, one of the most interesting, exciting and challenging build-ups to an issue of the magazine yet, Web Hosting's All Star Team. The balloting process was our first experiment with a kind of user participation we're planning to do a lot more with in the months to come. We had thousands of ballots submitted, with hundreds of write-in suggestions and a demonstration of user engagement that has us feeling super positive about the project.

May 2009 - The Blueprint for a Small Web Host
I was a little surprised by how difficult it became to see this idea through. We set out to assemble a blueprint for a small hosting business, but butted up pretty quickly against the general impossibility of covering all the territory that was out there to be covered.
